Stop sending students to jail for minor misbehavior. We support SB ____
Why is this important?
Last year alone, police made over 16,000 arrests of students in Florida Public Schools. The vast majority of these arrests were for minor misbehavior that could have been dealt with (at a much lower cost) by school officials. Students as young as 5 years old are being carted away in handcuffs, instead of being led to the principal or guidance counselor's office. Local school districts have failed to make significant changes to stop this trend, and it is time for the state legislature to act!
